Evolve Leadership
Page 39

As we are working with lots of teams on King
with different challenges - we saw a need to
improve and evolve the leadership from a team
perspective. Today most of this work is very
reactive and in a firefighting way. We would like
a more proactive way of working.
The purpose is in a organized way give our
leader on King a gift of how to improve their
leadership and to give our core workers a
channel to give this gift.

We ran 2 sessions with leaders from both test
group A and B that has received really good
scores and asked them to group the tags. After
they had grouped them we asked them to name
the areas (Attributes). In this way we back off,
and instead of assuming we understand and
know what a good leader is and what attributes
that defines them we let the good leaders that
we have to define them.
